ABSTRACT:
A probe/primer which includes a substantially purified single-stranded oligonucleotide containing a region the sequence of which is identical to the sequence of a six-nucleotide, single-stranded segment of a gene encoding a mutant form of a human photoreceptor protein, which segment includes the mutation; and methods of making and using such probe/primer.
